You know it's late...

SEXY!!!!!
You know that you are officially up too late when River Monsters (which I spend contemplating what it is about Jeremy Wade that makes him so sexy) is followed up by a show about the government cover-up of the existance of mermaids.  Yes...mermaids.  And this is on Animal Planet, by the way.

Book Review - Lightning-Fast Japanese

A few weeks ago, I received a copy of Lightning-Fast Japanese by Carolyn Woods.  The book is a learner’s guide to teaching you’re children basic Japanese.  Mrs. Woods covers the basics, including numbers, colors and everyday household objects.  You work the words into everyday conversations so that your children pick them up.  There are also word games that you can play as well.

I have been teaching myself Japanese on and off for a few years now, and have picked up a little bit here and there…mostly by watching moves, anime and tv dramas in subtitles.  The book is a great tool to help you learn, but I noticed that there are a few fundamental things missing from it.  The first thing is that there isn’t an explanation or diagram of the alphabet.  The alphabet is phonetic, meaning that the way something is the way that it sounds when you speak it.  For example, “baka” means idiot or fool.  The alphabet is “ba” () and “ka” ().  There are also several parts to the alphabet as well:  hiragana (the main part), katakana (used for foreign words) and kanji (modified Chinese that is used for nouns, adjective/verb stems).  Without knowing this, not only will you not be able to pronounce words, but you also won’t be able to recognize them when you see them written out.

Product Review - Massage Envy

Last week, I was treated to a free massage at Massage Envy.  Massage Envy is the leader in affordable message and spa services.  They offer various types of massages and facials that use Murad skin products.

I’ve never had a professional massage before, so I was very excited to get the offer.  I went to the Rockwall location since that was the closest one to my house.  When I first arrived, I filled out a questionnaire asking if I had ever had a massage before and what type of massage I wanted.   I then waited for my massage therapist to come and get me.
